In Monastery Avenue Eileen arrives back with Sash, the Bishops' pyjama wearing cousin, whose mother is in rehab trying to get over her drink and drug addiction. She goes to the community centre and Dermot spots her and gives out about her attire. Cass defends her right to wear what she likes.
An over protective Paul learns that Rachel has been visiting Monastery Avenue. He tells her while he likes Charlotte he doesn’t like the Bishop boys and she is banned from visiting the house. Niamh reluctantly agrees to support Paul’s ban but Vivienne is appalled and feels the need to defend her family to Paul.
